[. . . ] If turning off the monitor by detaching the power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds before attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation. Please use approved power cord provided by Philips all the time. If your power cord is missing, please contact with your local service center. (Please refer to Customer Care Consumer Information Center) Do not subject the LCD monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions during operation. [. . . ] Accessing SmartControl %Ï %Ï %Ï Right click on the desktop of your PC, and select Properties from the shortcut menu pops up. Click on Settings tab, and click on Advanced button. SmartControl Options %Ï Display and Sound By moving the sliding bar toward left or right, users will be able to adjust brightness, contrast, audio volume (if applicable), video noise (not applicable when using DVI-D input), and color temperatures. Position Users can adjust the horizontal and vertical position of the screen by moving the sliding bar left and right. This function is disabled when using DVI-D (digit) input. %Ï Product Information Click Product Information in the left pane to view the product information stored in the monitor's memory. General Click on General for general information including driver information, device information, and monitor control. Within monitor control, users can click on Auto Setup to achieve optimum performance or click on factory reset to reset the parameters of the monitor. Such choices are disabled when using DVI-D (digit) input. Q&A Q1. What is the difference between SmartManage, SmartControl? A. SmartManage is a remote management/control software for IT managers to manage monitors across the network SmartControl is a control panel extension, which helps users to adjust monitor performances and settings by a software interface, instead of the hardware buttons at the front bezel of the monitors. I change the monitor on a PC to a different one and the SmartControl becomes un-usable, what do I do?Restart your PC and see if SmartControl can work. Otherwise, you will need to remove and reinstall SmartControl to ensure proper driver is installed. The SmartControl functions well at the beginning, but it is not workable, what can I do?Furthermore, Philips sets even higher quality standards for certain types or combinations of pixel defects that are more noticeable than others. This policy is valid worldwide. Pixels and Sub pixels A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub pixels in the primary colors of red, green and blue. When all sub pixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored sub pixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the three colored sub pixels together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark sub pixels appear as single pixels of other colors. Types of Pixel Defects Pixel and sub pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are two categories of pixel defects and several types of sub pixel defects within each category. Bright Dot Defects Bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always lit or 'on'. That is, a bright dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a dark pattern. There are the types of bright dot defects: One lit red, green or blue sub pixel Two adjacent lit sub pixels: - Red + Blue = Purple Three adjacent lit sub pixels - Red + Green = Yellow - Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue) (one white pixel) A red or blue bright dot must be more than 50 percent brighter than neighboring dots while a green bright dot is 30 percent brighter than neighboring dots. Black Dot Defects Black dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or 'off'. That is, a dark dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a light pattern. These are the types of black dot defects: One dark sub pixel Two or three adjacent dark sub pixels Proximity of Pixel Defects Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same type that are near to one another may be more noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects. Pixel Defect Tolerances In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a TFT LCD panel in a Philips flat panel monitor must have pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in the following tables.

Rotating Your Computer's Operating System After rotating, the procedures below help rotate the image from your operation system. 1Right-click on the desktop then click on Properties. [. . . ] Each downstream port can be individually enabled and configured at either full or low speed. The hub isolates low speed ports from full speed signaling. A hub consists of two portions: the Hub Controller and Hub Repeater. The repeater is a protocolcontrolled switch between the upstream port and downstream ports. [. . . ]
